Cryptocurrencies are increasingly used by countries such as North Korea and Iran to finance prohibited programs for the creation of weapons of mass destruction. About This is stated in the June report of the International Fund Laundering (FATF).
According to the regulator, digital assets are one of the key tools of transgranic payments for financial networks related to the spread of weapons. Similar structures “often try to take advantage of the lack of effective AML/CFF/CPF”.
Particular concern for officials was caused by the use of cryptomicers and ophuscardies, which “complicates tracking transactions by third parties.”
FATF mentioned the February Bybit Bark Break of $ 1.4 billion, which is probably involved in the North Korean Lazarus Group. The report refers to active money laundering through mixers, non -disaspental wallets and low regulation platforms, including blocked Exch.
North Korea was called the most significant user of these systems, however, officials also pointed out the examples of similar violations from Iran and other countries.
We will remind that for the first six months of 2025 cryptorine suffered losses of $ 2.1 billion due to hacker attacks.
